Greetings, If it isn't already apparent, this is my first attempt building kernel on an AMD based arch. I have spent some 20yrs building world/kernel on the arch i386. But, after reading everything I thought I would need to know, I'm /still/ unable to complete a successful kernel build on the amd64 arch. cd /usr/src make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYAMDKERN fails: MYAMDKERN not found cd sys/amd64/ config MYAMDKERN OK cd ../compile/MYAMDKERN make cleandepend && make depend fails with alot of "i386" errors So, on a fresh 8-RELEASE install from DVD w/cvsupped src && ports, now running GENERIC, with a successful buildworld... Is it possible to build for the amd64 arch? If so, can anyone suggest where I went wrong? Thank you for all your time and consideration in this matter. --Chris P.S. of /course/ I read the kernel section of the handbook. :)
